Residents Are Being Warned Of Infections

New Hampshire residents are being warned about potentially dangerous infections as the number of mosquitoes rises.

The state Department of Health and Human Services says those insects have been known to trigger medical issues such as malaria and dengue fever.

Mosquitoes often breed in standing water so it’s recommended that people remove anything from their property that collects water like buckets and old tires.

Checking window screens for holes can also prevent mosquitoes from getting indoors.
